DJ Cleo in the limelight after Pitch Black Afro's revelation

Pitch Black Afro was in an interview discussing DJ Cleo and the royalties for Matofotofo. He stated that they are not close and are not on speaking terms.

He mentioned that his real name is Thulani, so he lives by the meaning behind it, and refrains from engaging in situations that will result in bickering.

"He never paid me the royalties for Matofotofo. We could never be close. He is the type of person that expects me to fight or something. Or maybe bad mouth him. I am not that person. My name is Thulani, so if a situation causes me to talk, I step away," he said.
